Anclote Adventures welcomes you to the gorgeous and productive waters west of Florida. Captain Brian Riley will meet you in Tarpon Springs and take you to some of the best spots in the area, including inshore, nearshore, as well as offshore grounds. He’s an experienced angler who’ll know how to provide a comfortable and fun-packed trip for you and your loved ones. Just pick your day and join him for a memorable day of fishing on Florida’s lovely waters!

Your adventure will start on a 23’ Shoalwater flats boat powered by a 200 HP Yamaha engine and features all the modern GPS, radar, fishfinder, as well as radio navigation electronics that will quickly and safely take you to your fishing spots. The boat has also got snorkeling equipment, a wireless trolling motor, and a livewell.

Captain Brian uses light and heavy tackle to target a number of prized species that dwell in this part of Florida. He’ll make sure you have the best chance of catching snook, redfish, trout, grouper, cobia, tarpon, seabass, tripletail, and other fine species.

You’re welcome to bring kids on your trip and enjoy a beautiful day on the water with your whole family. Also, if you decide to keep the fish you catch, Captain Brian will clean and fillet it for you free of charge.

Your trip includes all the rods, reels, tackle, live bait, lures, as well as fishing licenses, snacks, and drinks. With that said, the only things you should do before leaving is to arrive on time and prepare for loads of fun.

Anclote Adventures is waiting for you, hop aboard and spend a memorable day of fishing in Florida!

Captain Very Good.
4 Hour Trip – Inshore Fishing - 1:00 PM on February 19, 20242 adults
Worked hard on this particular day but very apparent the captain wanted us to catch fish. Tried for many different options. And, in the end, changed strategies and fish we were targeting to provide us with real thrills and satisfaction. Personable, committed to giving customers a great experience, willing even to bend the time to do so. I would heartily recommend Aneclote Adventure and would definite book with him again! P.S. His boat is a fun one to fish from.

Capt Brian fishing & Site seeing your Anclote Key
3 Hour Shelling & Sightseeing - AM on July 8, 20233 adults
We had a blast today 9 July 2023 with a wonderful tour and historic review of fishing locations, the Anclote Key lighthouse, various hidden treasures beaches only accessible via boat, and various ship wrecks- Tarpon Tours and a variety of historic and local facts about this gorgeous fishing area. Capt Brian was simply stellar in his knowledge of the area and his safety practices on open sea! I was delighted with the tour and new expectations to come back for more to learn and eco with our new friend and Capt. Brian. Thanks for getting my kids and me a great run for the money and excellent experience of the Great Anclote fishing and beach areas. You were amazing and we shall definitely be back shortly. Sincerely, Ricky Abreu

Awesome morning of fishing!
2 Hour Inshore Fishing – Trip on August 7, 20232 adults2 children
We took my kids out for a 2 hour inshore fishing experience and we have a BLAST! The boat was plenty big for us all to sit and fish comfortably without being in each others way. Captain Brian was very accommodating he did clock watch and made sure we caught fish and had a great time. He was very patient with the kids teaching them how to bait their own hooks and handling the fish. We will definitely be back and I would highly recommend taking a trip for yourself!

Great Family Day
2 Hour Inshore Fishing – Trip - 1:00 PM on March 7, 20243 adults1 child
Had the best time out with Brian and my family. We caught 6 fish, and my 12 year old had the time of his life. Brian was great, took us to a few spots and helped out non stop with tending to everyone's lines and making sure everyone had fun. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a fun day fishing.
